They also gave me a quote of $10,885 for the Pella Impervia & $9,431 for the Marvin Infinity.

After researching this forum, it appears that I don't want any of these windows. I'm thinking of going with Simonton or Gorrell. Any recommendations as far which window to go with, what price I can expect or recommending a local contractor would be greatly appreciated.

I would need to confirm the kind of glass but I have the installation quote in front of me. The quote was for the Uniteds but he also put down the price for the Pella Impervia (which he advised against the Pellas) and said if I'm going to spend that much, I should go with the Marvins.

Thanks for your response buddy110.

I would agree with him. The Marvin's are a much better choice than the Pella

Just make sure the company is sound, and the install is properly done. Outsides capped, pockets filled with low expanding foam if the window size and sill angle allows that or a good bead of sealant is layed around the perimeter to stop air flow around the new window frame

Apples to apples ???United is vinyl window (Low grade)Pella is Fiberglass composit (OK)Marvin is also Fiberglass but is better looking and performing window than Pella.

Simonton is vinyl window with heavy (bulky) frames with avarage glass performance.Okna has good performing glass but cheap, flimsy frames with insulation only install after windows are put together (No Good).

I would suggested American Jewel top line products (1700 or 3000 series).Check them out. Great looking windows with good glass performance and strong frames.AJ are windows with a lot of glass and very less vinyl.And I believe, factory is in North Jersey.

wait a minute pal ! i just saw all of Okna's lines less than 2 weeks ago along with corner cuts. every line they carry is a heavy/think guage pvc as well as a high grade vinyl. all their lines have DP ratings of at least 50,the 800 series has a DP rating of 60. these are probably the most structurally- solid windows i have seen in a long time. it seems obvious that you sell american jewel and for you to come on this board and make false claims is unprofessional. american jewel is a flimsy window and its obvious you are backed into a corner. Gorell is a very good window and simonton is not a cheap window either,sop the nonsense,its getting old.
